I'm not sure exactly where you're sending it from, or where you're sending it to, but here's what I found by saying I'd send it from Sao Paolo, Brazil (04552-050) to Apple in Seattle, WA (98104). I chose to send it with your own packaging, and had the custom value of $1500 US Dollars and the declared value (important insurance) also of $1500 US Dollars. I said the package weighed about 5 KGs (11 lbs). At www.ups.com, the price for sending it ranged from $152 - $195, which takes from 3 - 6 days. The $160 option (UPS Express Saver) seemed the best option if you're in a hurry, as it takes 4 days. Insurance was really only about $5, so you definitely want to make sure you get that. At www.fedex.com, the price for sending a package was $140 US Dollars. However, it was requested that I specify what was in the package, and when I specified that it was a laptop, the price did jump up to $220. I'm not sure if that's a requirement or not. It took 3 days, so you could get it there by the 24th if you send it tomorrow. I wasn't able to get a price quote at www.dhl.com because I'd have to register, and I don't feel like doing that. Hopefully this gives you an idea about whether it's cost effective to do this. Aren't there Apple stores in Brazil now? I don't speak Portugese, but maybe if you go to this site you can find a distributor to return it to there. http://latam.apple.com/buy/br/ Otherwise, you could always eBay it, though you'd probably take a hit equal to or greater than the shipping. Good Luck.
